Blu, I bought all the beads from ebay. Search for 10mm glass crackle beads and you'll find them. I paid £1.69 for 50 and bought 6 different colours. I had to buy the headpins, the spacer beads and the rings too, don't forget those :-)

I was expecting them to be much more than that! Iwill go and investigate immediately!!

Thanks!

They are gorgeous, I have ones with names on for the female bridal party guests but after looking at yours I think I may have to make some for the other guests too.

hi missminx, for the men I'm buying some key bottle openers and putting some aftershave samples in the boxes too. I've only got 6 to do for the men so I don't mind paying a little bit extra for those.

We already have our favour boxes and were going to fill them with sweets or maybe 5 almonds to make it traditional but I really like the idea of these.
I've already bought ones with names on for the top table but I might make my own for everyone else. I used to make jewellery so I ready have millions of beads etc so the only thing is need is the actual hoop and that's only a few pounds for 100 on eBay.

Would you only do them for ladies or men too? I'm not even sure all the guests would drink wine but atleast it could be a bit of decoration I suppose
